if you see france and how they were able to manage themselves in 2018, it's very similar. the style hasn't changed. maybe some of the protagonists have but the overall philosophy of what france is able to execute from the 2018 to now it's still intact. was it frosting rope a dope then? kind of all that they can, i think is they said that well, they can do that and they can also sting like, you know, staying, that'll be bused, but it even better. thanks very much guys. thanks for all your efforts this evening . well, 32 teams. i started this tournament to just to still have the child to lift the trophy thursday. the rest i for all of us to prepare for the last matches at catherine 2022. i will have all the build up to the wall cut final cupboard right here. on out to sarah, ah, you as present as announced an agreement aimed at strengthening tre, ties with african countries. joe biden is hosting leaders in delegates in the last
